One of the warmest war
stories duringWoridWarII
unfolded here on the
streets, in the homes, and
in the hearts of all of North
Canton.
Eighty - four sons and
daughters of, Hoover employees of the plant in England were routed from their
homes, left their parents
and sailed to the safety of
the United States far ,from
the Stuka Dive Bombers.
America had not entered
the war yet in August of 19-
40 when 210 children arrived in New York, aboard the
Samaria. Eighty-four would
make their home "for the
duration" in North Canton
under the sponsorship of
the home office of the
Hoover Company. Each
would then be placed in a
local home and supported,
by that family.
Careful planning went into
evacuating the youngsters
from their war torn homes
ito the safety of Ohio. The
youngsters, many brothers
and sisters, were escorted
by "ship board Mothers"
(11 British volunteer. women). After careful medical
examination andquarantine
in New York, Mr. H.W.
H o o v e r and personnel
boarded the train with 8 4
happy, inquisitive, awestruck boys and girls.
Their first thrill in
America had been seeing
ice in a drinking glass and
for some butter was a first
but bubble gum was the all
time thrill for all. Arriving
in New York had been exciting enough with the Statue of Liberty butseelngthe
lights on when all the homes
and cities in^England had
been darkened rated as an
added thrill.
Great preparations had
taken place in North. Can
ton to welcome our new
friends. A Community
Committee along with a
committee for the Hoover
Company had planned for
the arrival and the settling
in period which would follow. * .
Police escorted the buses
from the Pennsy station in
Canton as it brought the
children to their hew "home
-town". On their "arrival the
boys were housed at the
Hoover Camp and the girls
at the Hoover Inn. The children were thrilled at the
sight of the British flag
flyingbeneath the American
, flag on the various city
flag poles.
: After a short period o f
indoctrination the children
were place in local homes.
The professional services
of the Childrens Bureau
and Catholic Community
League enlisted to assist i n
the proper placement o f
the children. Where possible, brother and' sister
were not split up. The children had such last names
as Tunnicliff, Barker, Palmer, Holding, Bovill, Cos-
ton, Hamilton, Clarke and
Wales to mention only a few.
There were' 41 girls and 43
boys and they ranged in age
from 4-15. Many. families
that could not house a student contributed money to
their upkeep or entertained
them from time to time.
On the heels of being
settled in their new homes
late In August (1940), as
soon as school opened, another set of plans were
tackled. One week after the
regular students were back
to classes the British stu- ;
dents were Integrated into
our somewhat different ^
system of education. Itwas \

NCEA (North Canton Edu'c-^
ation Association) Herman
McHan, stated that stipends
should be included in the
pacts. He said he wanted to
be sure of the relation between teachers' extracurricular assignments and
their salaries. He said If
teachers are relieved o f
these duties, they should not
lose any part of their salary.
Chief school board negotiator Richard E. David
said teachers' salaries
would not be effected if they
were taken off these duties.
Mr. David reported that the
'i school board could not go
along with having the stipends as part of the contract
and that as the extracurricular needs of the students
change, thebbard must have
the freedom to make personnel changes. He said that
having the stipends included In the contract would restrict this freedom.
Both Mr. McHan and Mr.
Davis agreed that the stipend program has been satisfactory, although no decisions were reached on the
disagreement.
. The topic then turned t o
grievance procedures. Mr.
McHan againbrought out the
earlier proposal by the
school board calling f or
teachers to file grievances
within flvedays of school or

D a y i s said that much
could happen to precent administrators from taking
immediate action such a s
sickness, lack of opportunity, etc., and the board
should not be chained to the
inaction of school administration.
McHan told Davis that
when an administrate r
lacks the time to act on a
problem, he or she could
request an extension but
Davis still opposed the
idea.
Mr. McHan and Kenneth
Cole who is representative
ofUniServproposed that
binding arvitrattqn by a
neutral arbitrator in difficult grievance situations
should be made part of the
contract and that teachers
and the board should split
the costs.
Davis again refused the.
proposal. He said the board
couldnot accept binding arbitration and the arbitrator's decision should be
left to the Interpretation of
both sides. McHan said that
if board members and teachers do not follow the advice of the arbitrators they

NON-SMOKERS' RIGHTS
PASSES
Substitute Senate Bill 9 6
was approved this week by
the Senate and makes
smoking in places of public
assembly in an area designated "no smoki n g" a
minor misdemeanor.
The purpose of the bill,
which now moves to the
House, is to require the
designation of no. smoking
areas in places of public assembly for the convenience
and health of persons who
do not smoke. Restaurants,
lounges, and bowling alleys
are specifically excluded
from any provisions.
Three classes of buildings wouldqualify as places
of public assembly, subject
to the bill. (I.) Buildings inspected by the state fire
marshal; (2) buildings owned by the state and local
governments; a n d (3) all
other public places which
can contain 50 or more persons. I f the General Assembly enacts Sub. S.B.96

and rights of non-smokers.
SENIOR CITIZENS MAY
BUY LAND
A measure which I supported in passage this week

of the proposed law is to
facilitate the use of county

The effect of the bill is.
to permit the sales or
transfers to be made to any
senior citizens organization that a board of county
commissioners chooses
and at any price it con-
t siders appropriate, includ-

however, requires that any
deed conveying real property for these purposes
must state that if the prop-

permitted under the bill,
title to the property will revert to the county.

Eighty - four sons and

America had not entered
the war yet in August of 19-

make their home "for the

would then be placed in a
local home and supported,
by that family.
Careful planning went into
evacuating the youngsters
from their war torn homes
ito the safety of Ohio. The
youngsters, many brothers
and sisters, were escorted
by "ship board Mothers"

Police escorted the buses
from the Pennsy station in
Canton as it brought the
